Deep Thoughts From MsCreant Over At Zero Hedge

This was an interesting comment from the 'PIMCO and Zero Hedge' article over at Zero Hedge. I'll just let it stand on it's own. What do you think?

Fight club would take PIMCO and Paulson. What a great way to redeem yourself if you knew you were caught up in something larger than yourself, that you had a hand in creating, that did so much damage.

Folks are drawn to this blog because they want a taste of what this staff is living as they create the synergy that is this blog. They are working for something they believe in. Right there-- Wow! Chances are good they have decent relationships with each other (hope so). They obviously have an outlet for their creativity. Finances may be rough, don't know, but the kinds of things I just listed are the very things we are selling our souls for so that the finances won't be rough. Literally.

If you let it, the whole concept is a nice mind fuck, just slip it on in there and move it around. We are all permeable identities. We always were. The identity is the container that both enables and limits what is possible. The identity is something we become enslaved to. So enslaved that we get hung up on earning money instead of being good stewards for our planet, our community, our families, and our selves. Isn't that what went wrong here?

I don't want to put you fuckers on a pedestal. Then I'd need to kill you, see (my avatar has a gun) pedestals are part of the problem. But I do want to share with you that there is a wonderful spirit about this place which is contagious.

I don't need to know you to feel you. I don't need to always agree with you to see where the heart is. Thanks for what you do. You give me hope.

Even if you are PIMCO hedgefund managers...
